Pilotcredentials on the other hand, you better have your log book cut up 100 ways from Sunday to fill that mess out. And you have to do it for every airline, that's the most infuriating part.
Not as familiar with Pilotcredentials. I just had a look. Maybe it's a better service.
If Airlineapps worked, these and other forums wouldn't be full of people asking questions about how to get it to work correctly. I think an improved site could provide a much better user experience as well as a way for pilots/employers to view flight experience that's closer to what some of the popular electronic logbooks offer. It also lacks a mobile site.
On Airlineapps it isn't even clear when an application has been submitted after an update. One recruiter I talked to mentioned having set something up to prevent Airlineapps 'spam', which I imagine is the result of pilots repeatedly updating and re-submitting their profiles. It's just a bad system.
Not to mention cost...
